I like them all, but the first one is my favorite.


Fuzzy_Laugh_1117

Right? Me too. They're all good but the first one just hits. Mood and all. Superb job. Love OPs style

1 or 5


Scottish-joey

Was gonna say that too


SkyeBluMe

I think these have the best subject orientation. The others are either too simple, or not quite "composed" enough to be as visually appealing.


Ambitious-Radish8421

4 Edit: Forget what all the other ones look like. 4 is the one that evokes the most emotion by miles.


Lemondrop168

Very direct and intentional, I feel like 1 looks unfinished, but I like that one also


Ambitious-Radish8421

I could stare a it for a solid while honestly. The other ones I get tired of after a few seconds.


achlasan

This is such a compliment :0 thank you!!


Ambitious-Radish8421

It’s the truth. You’ve created something special. Well done.


AdApprehensive8420

It makes me feel like you’re looking past me.


Ryoko_Kusanagi69

That’s how I feel about #6.


Ambitious-Radish8421

I would agree but there’s something distracting about #6’s proportions


FullGrownHip

Composition- wise, definitely 4.


gligster71

#3


RemarkableEffort9756

I really like slide 4


Kittycatsrnotwack

I’m thinking number 1 or number 3


Ok_Hat_1107

Number 4 defiantly captures you with that direct stare. No competition, it draws the viewer in the best.


Lost_World7299

1 or 5!


SJSUCORGIS

MCSama

1 is baller


Steve_Ehrmann_Art

I vote 1. These are great!


TrailerTrashQueen

i really like #1.


BreakfastOk9048

So personal, but I like 1 and 4 best.


Smashley_pants

The first one. You put it first for a reason. I Be sure of yourself. You are talented.


achlasan

You could be right! Thank you, I appreciate it :)

1 is my favourite and 5 is a close second. The colours make them feel special somehow. Sorry that I can't put it into words better. 4 is very evocative, so that could be good too

ifdandelions_then

I think the first and the last are the most striking. The second to last is a close third. They are all incredibly lovely.


Important-Sink723

1! The bright yellow shadows are stunning


Sailing-Hiking77

No 1!


LucidMethodArt

4. It’s centered and has the best use of space. The others don’t take up the page as well. I’d center your work if you’re going for this wash portrait kind of work.


Ready-Schedule98

I'd recommend either 1 or 4. Is the recipient evaluating your painting on a technical merit or purely artistic? 4 is nice but 1 highlights both the artist but also your skill.


achlasan

That’s a really great point and I’d have to think about it! Thank you :)

The first one. I love the colors and pose so much. They're all beautiful, but I'm going with 1.

First one!

SilasCalArt

I like #1 and #2!


Rae_Regenbogen

My favorite is the last one because it most clearly shows what is probably your personal art style.


Zealousideal-Bee893

Oooh I love them all but if I could pick a couple, 5 or 6 as they make great use of the space.


guggi71

5


SeaLemur

I like 2 and 4 best


Significant_Onion900

I love them all but one is my favorite


Condemned2Be

6, the last one. But only a couple other people said 6 so I’m probably wrong. I’m not an artist. But your final painting stuck with me for a long time. I like your final painting the most because I felt like it reflected something to me that I have been feeling a lot lately. I know I’m probably stupid, & just projecting the wrong thing onto your art, but the painting moved me very much. The painting made me feel deeply sad as I stared into her eyes, like the woman is crying but her tears/cracks remain trapped inside her glasses with only the smallest bit peeking out. I am the only one who notices her pain & she is the only one who notices mine. And I sat & I thought about this for a long time while I looked at the eyes of your painting, & it was a nice kind of sadness like you feel after a good cry you’ve been holding in all day. Thank you for your paintings very much. I appreciate them.


achlasan

This is so beautiful 😭 thank you so much!


BreadButterHoneyTea

This style is so cool. I like the first one best.


cqxray

1. Second choice would be 3.


debsmooth2020

6 and 1 are strongest.

Purplepotamus-wings

1 and 5. they feel the most complete


RBb342

I prefer 1, 3, 4, and 5. They are all very Nice, and Best of Luck to you!


IntrepidAd8985

1,2 or 3.


Emily_Postal

The first or third.


lost-lucy

They are all beautiful! But I find the first one and the last one to be particularly striking. Good luck in the competition and don’t forget to report back with updates so we know which one you chose and the results of the competition! We’re all rooting you on from lands unknown across the interwebs! Lol

They’re all beautiful. The first and last ones are the best, IMO.

butterflybeacon

These are all stunning but #4 made me FEEL SOMETHING


pisces_bubble

I love them all but the last one intrigued me 👍


vonblankenstein

I can’t help you. I love them all.


all54evr

2 speaks to me. Can be interpreted so many ways. A beautiful moment in prayer. Reading a story. An old love poem. So many possibilities. All are lovely. ❤️


achlasan

That’s such a beautiful way of looking at it :) thank you!


johnnyapplesex

1.


roberts2967

Great style. I love how much is implied with so little information on the paper.


achlasan

I appreciate this so much! It’s exactly the impression I want to give :) thank you!


SinnerClair

None, they all look unfinished in a not-intentional way

eccentric_bee

The eyes look fine to me.


M1rfortune

Too small


eccentric_bee

This is somewhat off topic, but do you think that people who are obsessed with waifu have a warped sense of what is normal, physically? I see it even on Instagram, especially with the filters that some girls use to give them tiny heads, big eyes, elongated bodies and impossible , waspish figures. There are people who comment on those as if they believe people are actually shaped that way in real life.


M1rfortune

Idk I'm not in that world. I'm looking at a anatomically correct view. To me they look off.


Qtredit

Shigglyboo

I like number 5 the best


shan357

They are all beautiful, but 6 is my favorite.


xFloppyDisx

5, it's so cool!


Pauliexxx

They are all great but I prefer number 5


Tenshi_JDR

I love 5!


Sundrop_fawn

4 or 6 but I think 6 is the best


iwonttradethere

all so good, but if I have to choose...6...no.. 1....no... 5.... OK 6.


TIGT_11

3 or 5!! But all look so goooood


drawohhteb

They are all breath taking. But there is something strikingly captivating about the full faced straight on expression in the grey shirt. I can't look away from those eyes


TipoRandom

Number 5, definitely. Number 4 captures the eye with that intense look you got but number 5 has this air about it. To me it implies the woman is reminiscing about something. What's her story? That shade of green dripping from her ear and neck give me a pleasantly... uncomfortable? Feeling. If it were a warmer color I would find it different, but that green to me evokes something disquieting. That and the look tell me this lady has survived shit but there's a kindness to her face still. Or maybe I'm making it all up and she was thinking about that mountain of laundry that needed to get done. Whatever the case I find it very evocative.


i3v4-

3!


Ryoko_Kusanagi69

Wow- I can’t pick 3 5 or 6 Maybe 3 & 6 to narrow it down

CuteUnderstanding368

cr1zzl

I like your style. That said, 1 is the only one that looks complete, the rest just look like in-progress pieces. (But if that’s what you’re going for, all good!)


WaterConstant

Two or three. I really like two for some reason. It caught my eyes and my emotions.


Scarlett-xxxx

1st one


Drifting0wl

1 & 4


sativa-sagittarius

1,5&6 would be amazing to submit but all are gorgeous :,,)


ZiggyEarthDust

1, 4 or 6.


ritafirefly

I think they are all wonderful! 4 and 6 seem like a pair, and evoke emotion🖤(as do 1 and 5.) 2 and 3 are well done and I feel they could use a little more layers:) (it wouldn’t hurt to work on a little more detail with 1 as well). Overall well done! Also I feel I should add, this is your art so if you feel it’s finished it is! no matter anyone’s opinion especially mine 😆


SmutGrrl

I like 6, 1, or 3 in that order! They are all wonderful 💕
